PHARMACEUTICAL FORM
Buccal film
Breakyl is a soluble rectangular, flat, flexible buccal film with a
pink side and a white side designed to
deliver fentanyl directly into the blood circulation. The pink side
contains the active substance fentanyl. The
white side minimises fentanyl release into the saliva to avoid
swallowing of the active substance.
